2020 F150 Raptor CarAbc Screen Upgrade

So I just got my CarAbc 12 upgrade screen kit. I ordered the Dark Grey kit for my 2020 Ford F-150 Raptor. The color is slightly off compared to the original but nothing crazy that will drive me nuts. Installation was very straightforward using YouTube videos like @CocoTreks and @Exploringthewildlands for references and tips and tricks. Took me roughly 3 hours taking the trim bezels and screen/APIM off and tackling some laundry to help the wife and then back in to transfer all the stuff that needed to be transferred from the old screen and trim and then installing it back into the truck. I confirmed my radio was on 3.4 ahead of time so when I fired it up it only took 2 attempts at turning it on and off and on again for the screen size to adjust. I didn’t have to unplug or do anything updates. The screen is bright and bold. Responsiveness is only a fraction slower than the aged original screen. I can’t wait to take a road trip and really enjoy the screen size and the giant map. Best part is my wife checked it out and she loved it. So if anything changes about my opinions about this kit I’ll come back and revise this post. Also this is an unpaid “review” CarAbc said I don’t have enough followers to get a free screen. Hahaha. @CarAbc

Gen 1 or Gen 3

I’m in the market for a raptor. I currently found a really nice 2014 whipple SC with 50k miles. Or I could go for a used gen 3. Gen 1 is about $50k and Gen 3 would be about 75k. Which one would you guys go for ?

I should also say being used for a daily driver. I work from home. So I really only drive around town to the gym, BJJ. And the occasional 6hr ish trip a few times a year for hunting.

I like the idea of the gen 1 being able to tinker with it more and less tech. All the new tech has me a little paranoid. Ie updates over the air.

What you think!?

Update: link below what you guys think ?
